Dreams super dull

All of my lucid dreams are very clear and I feel like I'm actually there. When it comes to my normal dreams though, they are just like visualizing something while closing your eyes, the only difference is that I'm not visualizing. How could I improve my normal dream clarity? Other than just recording in my dream journal, I'm doing that now, but only for like a couple of weeks so far.

when I tried practicing KingYoshi's ADA technique it didn't actually help me become lucid but it did seem to make my dreams more clear. Have you checked that out? I think I recall a few others having similar effects.

other than that, I think the more thought and energy you devote to dreams (like the journal, lurking around here, etc) should be helping too but maybe not in an immediate way

I would say the main factor for dream clarity is dream recall, other factors could be amount of sleep, going to bed at at the same time (that's a good thing).
So yeah, if you aren't getting enough sleep, or not going to sleep at the same time every night, then this could be why, it certainly applies to me.
Keep it up with the Dream Journal and it will increase, I think you can buy Vitamin B which increases recall, so check out that and melatonin.
Happy Dreams
